You've been singing, that same old song
Far too long, far too long
Say you'll buy, me a shiny ring
But your words, don't mean a thing
No more calling me baby
No more loving like crazy
Til' you take me down (take me down)
You better take me down (take me down)
Take me down to the little white church
Take me down (take me down) Take me down (take me down) take me down to the little white church, take me down....
You can't ride, this gravy train, anymore anyways
There's a price, for keeping me
I might be cheap, but I ain't free
No more calling me baby, no more loving like crazy
Til' you take me down (take me down)
You better take me down (take me down)
Take me down to the little white church
Take me down (take me down) Take me down (take me down) take me down to the little white church, take me down....
Charming devil, silver tongue
Had your fun, now you're done
Mama warned me 'bout your games
She don't like you anyways
No more calling me baby
No more loving like crazy
No more chicken and gravy
I ain't gonna have your baby!
Til' you take me down (take me down)
You better take me down (take me down)
Take me down to the little white church
Take me down (take me down) Take me down (take me down) take me down to the little white church, take me down
Take me down to the little white church
Take me down, take me down, take me down to the little white church
Take me down, take me down,take me down, take me down to the little white church,take me down to the little white church,take me down to the little white church

Little White Church lyrics
You've been singing, that same old song
Far too long, far too long
Say you'll buy, me a shiny ring
But your words, don't mean a thing
No more calling me baby
No more loving like crazy
Til' you take me down (take me down)
You better take me down (take me down)
Take me down to the little white church
Take me down (take me down) Take me down (take me down) take me down to the little white church, take me down....
You can't ride, this gravy train, anymore anyways
There's a price, for keeping me
I might be cheap, but I ain't free
No more calling me baby, no more loving like crazy
Til' you take me down (take me down)
You better take me down (take me down)
Take me down to the little white church
Take me down (take me down) Take me down (take me down) take me down to the little white church, take me down....
Charming devil, silver tongue
Had your fun, now you're done
Mama warned me 'bout your games
She don't like you anyways
No more calling me baby
No more loving like crazy
No more chicken and gravy
I ain't gonna have your baby!
Til' you take me down (take me down)
You better take me down (take me down)
Take me down to the little white church
Take me down (take me down) Take me down (take me down) take me down to the little white church, take me down
Take me down to the little white church
Take me down, take me down, take me down to the little white church
Take me down, take me down,take me down, take me down to the little white church,take me down to the little white church,take me down to the little white church
